TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates generally to the testing of an application and more particularly, to a method and system for testing a browser-based application.

BACKGROUND

With the development of Web technology currently, many Web applications are implemented based on the browser/server (B/S) architecture. Different from the conventional client/server (C/S) architecture, the B/S architecture only requires a browser and does not need to install specialized software. It is convenient to work on different platforms by interacting with the Web server through the browser. In order to be adapted to the Internet environment, currently many Web applications have different language versions. Currently, there is not a simple and quick method for international testing of Web application products; and if a conventional software testing method is used, with the increase of supported languages, the workload of testing will also increases exponentially. Therefore, there is a need for a method for quickly and efficiently performing international testing of a Web application product.

FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an exemplary computer system 100 suitable for realizing implementations of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the computer system 100 may include: a CPU (central processing unit) 101, a RAM (random access memory) 102, a ROM (read only memory) 103, a system bus 104, a hard disk controller 105, a keyboard controller 106, a serial interface controller 107, a parallel interface controller 108, a display controller 109, a hard disk 110, a keyboard 111, a serial peripheral device 112, a parallel peripheral device 114 and a display 114. In these devices, what are coupled with the system bus 104 are the CPU 101, the RAM 102, the ROM 103, the hard disk controller 105, the keyboard controller 106, the serial controller 107, the parallel controller 108 and the display controller 109.

It should be appreciated that the structural block diagram of FIG. 1 is shown only for illustrative purpose, rather than limitation to the scope of the present invention. In some cases, some devices may be added or removed according to specific conditions.

FIG. 2 shows a flowchart of a method 200 for testing a browser-based application according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the method 200 for testing a browser-based application starts at step 202.

Next, the method 200 enters into step 204, in which a host language HTTP request issued by the host language browser is received. The host language HTTP request is configured to be sent to a host server address and the HTTP request comprises a plurality of parameter strings in a host language. The host language HTTP request is an HTTP request issued by the tester performing the globalization testing through the host language browser he/she operates. The host language browser can have, e.g., English interface, that is, the host language is English. The host language browser operated by the tester receives a user input and generates a host language HTTP request. The following gives an example of a generated host language HTTP request.

-   -   GET     -   /SampleWeb/javax.faces.resource/sample.jsf?Stringname=Create+User&Date=07%2D01%2D2011         HTTP/1.1     -   Accept-Language: en-us     -   User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0     -   Host: 9.125.139.100     -   Connection: Keep-Alive

Next, the method 200 enters into step 206, in which globalization rules are obtained. The globalization rules specify rules of correspondence between different language versions of a browser-based application. Table 1 presents an example of the globalization rules. It should be understood that Table 1 only exemplarily shows part of the rules, and the rules shown in Table 1 are only exemplary illustration, and should not be taken as limitation to the technical solutions of the present disclosure. For different applications, the globalization rules may have different specific rules or forms.

TABLE 1 Language en-us zh-cn Date format mm-dd-yyyy yyyy 

 mm 

 dd 

Server address 9.125.139.100 9.125.139.200 String name Create User

String name Network

Thus in one embodiment, globalization rules of correspondence between host parameter strings in the host language and corresponding target parameter strings associated with the target language are obtained. In the globalization rules, each host parameter string of the at least one host parameter string in the host language HTTP request is found. Then the respective target parameter string corresponding to each host parameter string found in the globalization rules is determined.

In one embodiment as depicted in the Language row in Table 1, a host language parameter string of the at least one host parameter string in the host language HTTP request may be the host language (e.g., en-us denoting English as depicted in Table 1), wherein the globalization rules specify that the target language (e.g., zh-cn denoting Chinese as depicted in Table 1) is the respective target parameter string corresponding to the host language parameter string.

In one embodiment as depicted in the server address row in Table 1, a host address parameter string of the at least one host parameter string in the host language HTTP request is the host server address, wherein the globalization rules specify that the target server address is the respective target parameter string corresponding to the host address parameter string.

In one embodiment as depicted in the date format row in Table 1, a date format parameter string of the at least one host parameter string in the host language HTTP request specifies a format for a month, day, and year of a date.

Next, method 200 enters into step 208, in which the host language HTTP request is modified according to the globalization rules to generate a target language HTTP request. In one embodiment, each host parameter string of the at least one host parameter string in the host language HTTP request is replaced with the respective target parameter string determined from the globalization rules.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a host parameter string is extracted from the received host language HTTP request and replaced by a corresponding target parameter string. In one embodiment, the target language HTTP request is generated by replacing each host parameter string of at least one host parameter string of a plurality of parameter strings in the received HTTP request with a respective target parameter string associated with a target language that differs from the host language. The generated target language HTTP request is configured to be sent to a target server address associated with and different from the host server address.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, modifying the host language HTTP according to the globalization rules to generate a target language HTTP request comprises: searching for a corresponding parameter string in the target language, and replacing the parameter string in the host language HTTP request with the corresponding parameter string in the target language. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, modifying the host language HTTP according to the globalization rules to generate a target language HTTP request comprises: searching for a corresponding data format in the target language, and replacing the corresponding parameter string in the host language HTTP request with the parameter string corresponding to the target language data format. By using the corresponding parameter string in the target language to replace the parameter string in the host language HTTP request or using the parameter string corresponding to the target language data format to replace the corresponding parameter string in the host language HTTP request, a target language HTTP request is generated.

In the following will be described the above process with reference to the host language HTTP request given previously as an example. According to an embodiment of the present invention, by analyzing the host language HTTP request, first it is determined that its language (i.e., the host language) is en-us; further, the parameter strings appearing in the host language HTTP request, i.e., “CreateUser” and “07-11-2011”, are extracted. Further, by checking the globalization rules, it can be determined that there is target language zh-cn corresponding to the host language en-us. It should be appreciated that to simplify the description, Table 1 only shows one target language. Table 1 may have rules corresponding to multiple target languages, and for simplicity, here corresponding examples are not given. Further, by checking the globalization rules, it can be determined that the parameter string of the target language zh-cn to which the parameter string “CreateUser” corresponds is “

”. Then, the corresponding parameter string “

” of the target language (zh-cn) is used to replace the corresponding parameter string “CreatUser” in the host language HTTP request. Further, for the parameter string “07-01-2011”, by checking the globalization rules, it can be determined that the date format of the target language zh-ch corresponding to the date format of the host language en-us, “mm-dd-yyyy”, is “yyyy

mm

dd

”. Then the parameter string corresponding to the date format of the target language (zh-cn) is used to replace the corresponding parameter string in the host language HTTP. That is, using “2011

07

01

” to replace “07-01-2011”. In the following is presented the target language HTTP request generated by the above process.

-   -   GET     -   /SampleWeb/javax.faces.resource/sample.jsf?Stringname=%E5%88%9B%E5%BB%BA%E7%94%A8%E6%88%B7&Date=2011%E5%B9%B407%E6%9C%8801%E6%97%A5         HTTP/1.1     -   Accept-Language: zh-cn     -   User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0     -   Host: 9.125.139.200     -   Connection: Keep-Alive

wherein “%E5%88%9B%E5%BB%BA%E7%94%A8%E6%88%B7” corresponds to the encoded “□ □ □ □”, while “2011%E5%B9%B407%E6%9C%8801%E6%97%A5” corresponds to the encoded “2011□07□01□”.

Next, the method 200 enters into step 210, in which the target language browser is instructed to issue the generated target language HTTP request; e.g., by instructing the target language browser to send the target language HTTP request to the target server at the target server address. After the above-described step 208, one or more target language HTTP requests have been generated from the host language HTTP request according to the globalization rules. Since an HTTP request can only be issued by a browser, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, respective browsers corresponding to the target languages may further be instructed to issue corresponding target language HTTP requests, and further the respective browsers corresponding to the target languages may receive responses to the corresponding target language HTTP requests.

Next, the method 200 enters into step 212 and ends.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the method 200 for testing a browser-based application further comprises instructing the host language browser to issue a host language HTTP request. This step can be executed in response to receiving the host language HTTP request issued by the host language browser, or be executed in response to generating the target language HTTP request. Instructing the host language browser to issue the host language HTTP request can be realized by transparently processing the host language HTTP request, that is, directly sending the host language HTTP request to the host server at the host server address without any processing. In one embodiment, sending the host language HTTP request to a host server address and sending the target language HTTP request to a target server address are performed concurrently, for implementation of concurrent testing performed on multiple languages versions of a Web application.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the method 200 for testing a browser-based application further comprises obtaining a response to the received host language HTTP request and a response to the target language HTTP request. In response to instructing the host language browser to issue the host language HTTP request and the target language browser to issue the target language HTTP request, the host language browser will receive the response to the host language HTTP request and display it on the host language browser, while the target language browser will receive the response to the target language HTTP request and display it on the target language browser. At this time, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, by invoking interfaces provided by the browsers, the response to the received host language HTTP request and the response to the target language HTTP request can be obtained in response to the host language browser sending the host language HTTP request to the host server address and the target language browser sending the target language HTTP request to the target server address, respectively. Further, according to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the obtained response to the host language HTTP request and response to the target language HTTP request are compared and analyzed.

Above has been described a method for testing a browser-based application according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to an example of an HTTP GET request. It should be pointed out that the above example is only for illustrative purpose, and should not be construed as limitation to the technical solution of the present disclosure. In fact, the technical solution of the present disclosure is also applicable to other types of HTTP request, e.g., HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, etc., which will not described here one by one.

In the following will be described a system for testing a browser-based application according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to FIG. 3.

FIG. 3 shows a block diagram of a system 300 for testing a browser-based application according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the system 300 for testing a browser-based application comprises: a request receiver 302 configured to receive a host language HTTP request issued by the host language browser; a rule obtainer 304 configured to obtain globalization rules; a request modifier 306 configured to modify the host language HTTP request according to the globalization rules to generate a target language HTTP request; and a request instructor 308 configured to instruct the target language browser to issue the generated target language HTTP request. In the following will be described the respective components in greater detail.

The request receiver 302 is configured to receive a host language HTTP request issued by the host language browser. The host language HTTP request is an HTTP request issued by the tester performing the globalization test through the host language browser he/she operates. The host language browser can have, e.g., English interface, that is, the host language is English. The host language browser operated by the tester receives a user input and generates the host language HTTP request.

The rule obtainer 304 is configured to obtain globalization rules. The globalization rules specify the rules of correspondence between different language versions of the browser-based application.

The request modifier 306 is configured to modify the host language HTTP request according to the globalization rules to generate the host language HTTP request.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the system 300 for testing a browser-based application further comprises a parameter extractor (not shown in FIG. 3) configured to extract a parameter string from the received host language HTTP request. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the request modifier 306 is further configured to search for a corresponding parameter string in the target language, and replace the parameter string in the host language HTTP request with the corresponding parameter string in the target language. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the request modifier 306 is further configured to search for a corresponding data format in the target language, and replace a corresponding parameter string in the host language HTTP request with a parameter string corresponding to target language data format. By using the corresponding parameter string in the target language to replace the parameter string in the host language HTTP request or using the parameter string corresponding to the target language data format to replace a corresponding parameter string in the host language HTTP request, a target language HTTP request is generated.

The request instructor 308 is configured to instruct the target language browser to issue the generated target language HTTP request. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the request instructor 308 is configured to instruct a respective browser corresponding to a target language to issue a corresponding target language HTTP request.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the request instructor 308 is further configured to instruct the host language browser to issue the host language HTTP request. This can be performed in response to receiving the host language HTTP request issued by the host language browser, or performed in response to generating the host language HTTP request. This can be realized by transparently processing the host language HTTP request, that is, the host language HTTP request is directly sent to the server without any processing.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the system 300 for testing a browser-based application further comprises a response obtainer (not shown in FIG. 3) configured to obtain a response to the received host language HTTP request and a response to the target language HTTP request. In response to instructing the host language browser to issue the host language HTTP request, and the target language browser to issue the target language HTTP request, the host language browser will receive a response to the host language HTTP request and display it on the host language browser, and the target language browser will receive a response to the target language HTTP request and display it on the target language browser. The response obtainer obtains the response to the received host language HTTP request and the response to the target language HTTP request by invoking the interfaces provided by the browsers. Further, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the system 300 for testing a browser-based application further comprises a comparison analyzer configured to compare and analyze the response to the received host language HTTP request and the response to the target language HTTP request.
